Next Day Soba Noodles with Veggies

Soba noodles are delicious Japanese noodles made from buckwheat flour. Here is a simple chilled noodle dish loaded with veggies that actually gets better the next day. It’s perfect for a grab and go lunch or tomorrow night’s dinner. Especially if you don’t have time to make anything but want a nutritious meal waiting for you, this is a great solution.

I picked up some Organic Soba Noodles from Uwajimaya Asian Grocery (they can also be found at most supermarkets) last week because I’ve been itching to recreate this wonderful chilled soba noodle dish my brother used to make. His was a lot more involved than this is; it had carrots, cucumbers, sesame oil, scallions, garlic and lots of hot pepper and was so delicious! I saw a recipe for Spicy Ginger Noodles from Healthy. Delicious. and combined both ideas and came up with this yummy dish!

Don’t get scared by what seems like a lot of ingredients. It’s really just a bunch of veggies and as Martha Stewart would say: “That’s a good thing.” There isn’t really much cooking here so most of the work is in the veggie prep. Open a bottle of wine, pour a glass, put on a good Pandora station, then just chill and chop for the next 20 minutes. It will be worth it!

NOTES:

Chili Garlic Sauce is also called Sambal Oelek. I always buy mine from Whole Foods so I can be sure it is free of MSG and other additives.

My wife wanted to make this the other day along with a few of your other recipes. I was skeptical. But I am glad she insisted! This is a great meal cold or warmed up a bit. I love all of the flavors (I forgot to add the sesame seeds though), including the ginger and sesame oil. Sesame oil is great and you only need a little for a lot of flavor. We love you have the PointsPlus as well. Makes it easy to track. Thanks again!

"Amazing! Delicious! I grew up eating Picadillo, always traditionally with ground beef, and your Ground Chicken Picadillo is honestly some of the best I’ve had. This was my first time ever using ground chicken and I’m hooked. This is also my first time making one of your recipes and am now looking for more. Thank You for this amazing dish!"

"My adult son came down with a terrible cold and I was going to make chicken soup for him. I had your Italian Sausage and Cabbage soup in the freezer so I defrosted it for myself. He claims to hate cabbage but heated some of this up for himself and declared, “This stuff is a treasure.” He claims the spiciness (when I made it all I had was hot Italian sausage so I used that) and soup quality helped him become unstuffed better than anything. Thank you so much. With my son loving this cabbage soup and my being already hooked, this will become a healthy soup for both of us. As a type 2 diabetic, it’s the bomb."

"This is quick, easy, and delicious! Having never made egg drop soup before, and having never used coconut aminos, AND doing the Whole 30 Challenge, this soup is absolutely spot on!
Thanks again for a great dish and easy to follow directions."

"I have to say that this Chicken Pot Pie is now a staple and a favorite in my house. I can’t thank you enough for such an amazing recipe! I made a glutenous version for my father-in-law and he actually preferred this recipe instead which is a miracle! It can get boring to eat the same things all the time when you’ve got food sensitivities but this recipe saved us from dinner boredom! Thank you!"

"I’ve made; and been disappointed by, many mug cakes over the last several years. That was not the case your Paleo Vanilla Mug Cake! It was DELICIOUS. I did have to make a minor adjustment to suit my dietary needs (I am not paleo and require sugar-free, so I subbed in my favorite sugar-free syrup for the maple syrup). I will definitely be making this again and again. Thank you for the recipe!"

"I love the fresh, seasonal approach you took with this slow cooker sausage and vegetable ratatouille. It’s perfect for when I want a healthy meal, but need to be in the office for a long day. This was a huge hit with my family, especially my 11 year-old son, who is working on becoming a veggie fan. He asked me to make it again this week. Thanks so much for your work and for sharing this recipe!"

"Ever since I went Gluten-free, I've tried out a lot of recipes from a ton of bloggers. I can honestly say that every recipe I've tried of yours is fantastic. I'm addicted to the creamy cilantro dressing, I always have a batch made. The pizza egg casserole is a giant hit with both me and my non- GF husband. The Asian Cabbage Salad is SO GOOD. I'm about to make your Twisted Tuna... I am a HUGE FAN. Keep it coming!!!"

"This dairy free avocado crema is amazing! Had planned to make this last night for the first time, when my husband offered to prep dinner. So I sent him this recipe for our taco dinner. He mentioned it was easy and when I asked if he tasted it he said – “yay, but things always taste better when you make them.” My response “I’ve never made this, it was just something different I wanted to test out.” The look on his face was priceless – a little shock and a touch of pride. It was delicious and we decided that next time we would like to toss in some chopped jalapeno for a little heat. Thanks for sharing."

"Great recipe, I stumbled upon this Slow Cooker Sausage & Peppers on Pinterest. I used a local spicy sausage as suggested and did not cut back on the pepper flakes, It had a perfect amount of heat. I served it on top of quinoa and it is now one of my favorite easy meals."
